Medicare Outpatient Therapy Cap
Tell Congress to support the Medicare Access to Rehabilitation Services Act of 2015, S. 539/ H.R. 775, legislation that would repeal the Medicare outpatient therapy caps and ensure Medicare patients continue to have access to medically necessary speech-language pathology, occupational therapy, and physical therapy services. A repeal of the Medicare therapy caps should also be included in any Sustainable Growth Rate (SGR) reform package.
